Turn your iPhone or iPad into a tether for your camera. CloudTether connects over a USB cable or Wi-Fi, catches every shot the moment you take it, and lands the full-resolution file in an album in seconds — no laptop, no card reader, no desktop tethering software. CHOOSE WHERE SHOTS GO When a camera connects, pick where its shots go: Unsorted, an album on this phone, or a cloud album. The choice is remembered for each camera, so next time it's one tap. Shoot first, decide later — anything taken before you choose lands in Unsorted and can be moved anytime. ALBUMS ON YOUR PHONE AND IN THE CLOUD • Playback splits every shot into Device and Cloud tabs. • Unsorted and albums on this phone stay on this device. • Cloud albums sync to your account on every device and the web, always upload the originals, and deliver to the destinations you attach. DELIVER ANYWHERE Dropbox, Google Drive, Google Photos, OneDrive, Box, ShootProof, SmugMug, Photohawk, Flickr, Adobe Lightroom, Frame.io, Slack, Amazon S3, WebDAV, FTP/SFTP and more. Never locked to a proprietary cloud. MULTIPLE CAMERAS AT ONCE Tether several cameras over USB, Wi-Fi or a mix — each into its own album. Home shows a live shoot panel, and every camera gets its own Live Activity on the Lock Screen with its shots captured, sending and delivered. CONNECT ALMOST ANY CAMERA Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fujifilm, GoPro and many more, over USB or Wi-Fi. Pick your brand, choose your model, and follow the guided setup. BUILT FOR REAL SHOOTS • Full-resolution RAW + JPEG, exactly as the camera recorded them. • Works over Wi-Fi or mobile data; missed uploads catch up automatically when you're back online. • Sync copies new on-phone shots to your Photos library or a folder (including a USB drive or SD reader) as they arrive. • Geotag each photo with your phone's location, matched to the moment you pressed the shutter. KNOW WHERE EVERY PHOTO IS Every shot shows whether it's uploading, in the cloud or delivered. Anything that needs attention is grouped with a one-tap fix, and you can open the delivered folder in Dropbox, Drive, OneDrive or Box to check.
